[QUOTE="brett636, post: 971550, member: 249"] I know it defies logic, but our driver had to stop at a stop sign while the crossing traffic does not have to stop. Despite the excessive speed of the bike the right of way still applies to the rider. Same situation happened to an Aunt and Uncle of mine. They were leaving a movie theater one night, and from the exit of this theater the road bends in such a way that you cannot see past it by maybe 150 ft. or so, but the speed limit is 30 so anything coming around you should be able to see it before you pull out. Well my Aunt was driving and pulled out and a speeding motorcycle doing an excess of 80 mph hit her. The bike had no insurance, was not even the property of the rider, and the rider in question was not even licensed to ride a motorcycle. The rider survived, but will require special care the rest of his life. He sued my Aunt and Uncle and won based on the right of way rules. Its messed up but that is how it works. [/QUOTE]
